Decent, fun tattoos for fun people.
Julian — known as xwildxlovex — is a tattooer rooted in Pomona, California (Califas), now putting in the work at Ohana Tattoo Company in Waikiki, Hawaii.
Eclectic style, bold sensibility, and a soft spot for the kind of pieces that make people grin in the chair. Walk in and pick something off the flash wall, or text ahead with a custom idea.
Honolulu home base. Aloha and respect to the craft.
what i do
Hand-drawn pieces, walk-in flash, and the rest of the conversation we'll have when you walk in.
custom designs
Bring an idea or a feeling — we'll draw something fresh together. Hand-drawn, never traced, sized for the body part it's living on.
walk-in flash
Hand-painted flash sheets at Ohana, ready to ink. Pick from the wall, sit in the chair, walk out with a fresh piece.
small & meaningful
Tiny pieces, single-line drawings, fine-detail work. The quiet tattoos that hold a lot.
cover-ups & reworks
Got something old you want to make new? Bring a photo and we'll talk through what's possible.

Ohana means family — and stepping through the door, you feel it. Hand-painted flash sheets cover every wall. Walk-ins welcome 9 AM to midnight, every day. Tourists, locals, military — everyone's family at Ohana. Whether you came for a Hawaii memory or for a specific artist's custom work, the door's open.
